African Americans can’t use the same public facilities with white people. But America is also advocating itself as a“Free land”,contradicting with the existence racial segregation. Under the effects of various factors, African Americans started to fight for equal rights and freedom. This movement reached its zenith in 1950s-1960s and African Americans finally gained equality, liberty and dignity. But the racial discrimination is still a significant issue in America, which received a huge amount of attention after Freud was killed by white police. At the same time, African Americans chasing for equality excessively, which cause other social problems, such as political correctness issues and American society being torn up.
